Best selling cars in UK made locally

The name Nissan may be Japanese but the company is the UK’s largest car manufacturer by quite some margin. Three of Nissan’s best-selling models are actually made here in England. The Note, JUKE and QASHQAI are all built to high standards at the highly efficient Nissan plant in Tyne and Wear.

From the Micra to the 370Z and storming high performance GT-R,Nissan produces everything from city cars and superminis to crossovers, 4x4s, sports cars and the recently refreshed 100% emissions-free LEAF electric car, which is also built in Britain. Just think, no fuel to have to purchase and no road tax to pay due to the car’s zero CO2 emissions. Yes, you do have to charge it up but it’ll cost you little to do so. It’s one of the best electrically-powered cars on the market.
